Hey guys! Welcome to our first CUPS Tutorial video
We call this groove the Clap Groove - it sounds like this
OK to play this groove we need to know two different patterns
The first one sounds like this
And the second one sounds like this
Alright, let's learn them one at a time
So the first one, we start with two taps on the table
and we go right hand - left hand
After that we do a clap
So we put that together and we have
Right, Left, Clap
One more time
Excellent! Then with the right hand we're going to pick up the cup
So if we add that on we have
Right, Left, Clap, Up
Put it down and again. Right, Left, Clap, Up
And one more time
Good, now after this point we're going to tap the table with the left hand
Good, so you'll still be holding the cup like Cat was
So we have
Right, Left, Clap, Up, Left Hand
One more time
And one more, let's go one more
Right, Left, Clap, Up, Left Hand
And the last thing we have to do is put the cup down
Just like that
So, we put all of that together and we have
Right, Left, Clap, Up, Left, and then Down
And again
One more time
And that's the first pattern
Alright so the second part of this pattern goes like this
Alright so this is the same as the second part of the Cup Game if you've ever played that
So the way we do this is we start with a Clap
Not too loud :D
Then after the clap we twist our hand over
We did this with our right hand
Twist it over. Very nice
Grab it from the other side
So, put that together we go
Clap, Twist
Again
Clap, Twist
From that position
You then bring the cup up
And hit it against your other hand
So, with that we have
Clap, Twist, Hit
One more time
Clap, Twist, Hit
Alright, from there
Simply bring the cup down
And hit it against the table
Very well done
Alright, so
Putting that together we have
Clap, Twist, Hit, Down
One more time
Clap, Twist, Hit, Down
Alright after that you just need to
Pass it to your other hand
Excellent!
So
Clap, Twist, Hit, Down, Pass
One more time
Clap, Twist, Hit, Down, Pass
Alright, from there
FROM THERE! Well done :D
You just need to hit with your other hand
On the table
Okay
So
Clap, Twist, Hit, Down, Pass, Hand
-This is getting a bit complicated! -Catchy!
Clap, Twist, Hit, Down, Pass, Hand
Now this time Josh will say it!
Clap, Twist, Hit, Down, Pass... Hand
Hand, well done
Alright, after the Hand
So you're like this
You then get your cup and twist it over
So you end up with your hands crossed over like that
Ok, so
All of that is
Clap, Twist, Hit, Down
Pass, Hand, Over
Sing along!
Clap, Twist, Hit, Down
Pass, Hand, Over
One more time
Clap, Twist, Hit, Down
Pass, Hand, Over
OK, and that's the whole second part
Alright, for the last bit we get to put it together
-Is that right? -Yep
Yep. Alright!
So
We do the first pattern three times
And then we do the second pattern once
OK. OK
-Once -Second time
That's two!
Cat's been working on her counting
-That's two?? No haha -And then
-Nice. Try that again? -Mhmm
And then
Clap, Twist, Hit, Down, Pass, Down, and Over
-Perfect -Excellent
Easy
Alright and when we put all of that together
it'll sound like it did in our CUPS video, which is like this
